The Experience

We are a hotel that has been working with volunteers for over 10 years, we love discovering beaches and watching the sunset :-) We mostly need help in housekeeping and also in the breakfast buffet that is served to the guests. In winter we do a lot of maintenance work and sometimes some gardening tasks. Expect to have a lot of free time but also to have to work hard. We recommend bringing some old clothes with you that can get dirty. ;-)

It was my first Worldpackers experience and I could not have asked for a better and more welcoming people to work with. Everyone of the workers makes you feel appreciated. Volunteers can use a car which is a big bonus if you want to go surfing to the beach nearby. Work consists of cleaning the rooms or maintenance work if there are not so many people in the hotel. Work is not hard and the girls who I worked with were always in a good mood and explained everything. Everyone in the hotel is super friendly and nice. I would recommend the hotel to everyone :))

My first volunteer experience was excellent. The hotel team is amazing, thank you very much to Barbara and Belen for their good vibes and willingness, and to Joao for giving us the opportunity to apply in this place. What we agreed is respected. I can only say thank you, and the most important thing is that I take great friends with me <3.

I am grateful to everyone in the hotel, a real utopic paradise!, everyone was welcoming and supportive, the surroundings are simply breathtaking (literally!! Expect to walk a lot and getting used to it, which is the best part). Working closely with Barbara and Belen was motivating, since they two are real hard workers and will always be patient with you! It was my first experience ever and it felt so rewarding. I would suggest the hotel to every brave soul, even though I wouldn't recommend it as a first experience. Helena and Pamela are super sweet! Thanks the hotel💕💕 TRAVEL SAFE💕💕 and chin up!

My staying at the hotel was amazing. The work was super easy, the team is great. Barbara and Belen will always stay in my heart, along with all the beautiful people that I met during my stay. This experience was unforgettable and I recommend it to everyone that wants to meet people and create memories with them. Hope I can meet everyone again one day!

I would definitely recommend this experience, especially if you enjoy the beach and a chill time. The work schedules are respected, the staff is very kind, and I had the chance to meet amazing people. Lagos is just over an hour from Aljezur and I highly recommend visiting it on your days off. The sunset in Arrifana is one of the most stunning I've ever seen, especially from Ti Raul café. Thanks to everyone I met at the hotel for making it such an awesome experience 💕 Vou sentir saudade!
